Question

Can I catch COVID - 19 from the faeces of someone with the disease ? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

The risk of catching COVID-19 from the feces of an infected person appears to be low. While initial investigations suggest the virus may be present in feces in some cases, spread through this route is not a main feature of the outbreak. The ongoing research on the ways COVID-19 is spread and will continue to share new findings. Because this is a risk, however, it is another reason to clean hands regularly, after using the bathroom and before eating.

• While initial investigations suggest the virus may be present in faeces in some cases, to date, there have not been reports of faecal-oral transmission of COVID-19.

• Additionally, there is no evidence to date on the survival of the COVID-19 virus in water or sewage.

• WHO is assessing ongoing research on the ways COVID-19 is spread and will continue to share new findings on this topic.
